GVBA Mission

The mission of the Green Valley Baptist Association is to:

1.  Nurture harmony in faith and practice in the churches.

2.  Nurture fellowship among the churches, church leaders and members.  It is a positive expression of mutual care and support for one another.

3.  Call the churches to be on mission.  It is a challenge to achieve the purpose for which churches/missions exist, both individually and together.

4.  Provide resources and services to churches and leaders.  It is a network for which churches regularly give and receive assistance.

5.  Train, develop and encourage church leaders and Associational workers.

6.  Provide opportunities of working together in missions, ministry, church growth and evangelism.

7.  Establish and maintain appropriate communication and relationship with the community and the denomination.

8.  Govern the association under the Lordship of Christ.  The Association as the local church, is autonomous and responsible for governing itself in missions.

9.  Plan and conduct the Association's program and manage its resources.

10.  Provide information about the churches to the denomination.  We are a "Liasion" to help our denomination provide materials and services to encourage church extension and church development in the local church.
